Big thoughts on the ties between mental health and democracy. ✍🏼 Invisible Threads. Won Pulitzer Prize with Washington Post colleagues for covering the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Chatbots and artificial intelligence tools gobbling up toxic social media and spitting out questionable information may prove a doozy for people trying to discern good intel from bad. But misinformation that creates confusion and sows division is nothing new. In fact, America is built on it. For centuries, powerful men have spun myths into language and laws that shape U.S. culture. To build better political, social and economic systems, we must expose the misinformation they’re based on. The latest Invisible Threads features the myth-busting, investigative work of journalist Antonia Hylton, author of  Madness: Race and Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum.  https://lnkd.in/e9KdF_qA
